4 Best Cryptocurrencies to Buy for Long-term Investment; BlockBoost ($BBT), Ripple (XRP), Tron (TRX), and Bitcoin (BTC)

In 2024, lending became a significant value driver for the TRON network, with JustLend emerging as the dominant platform. JustLend accounted for over 55% of the total value locked (TVL) on TRON, which stands at $7.36 billion across decentralized protocols, including lending and decentralized exchanges (DEX). JustLend alone holds $5.89 billion in TVL, according to DeFi Llama, while other sources report figures up to $8.3 billion. The protocol’s rapid growth is reflected in its user base, with over 469,000 active wallets, though DappRadar reports a smaller number of 94 daily active wallets. TRON’s decentralized finance ecosystem also saw a boost in Q4, and with the planned launch of TRON’s version of WBTC, lending activity is expected to increase in 2025. TRON’s total fees for 2024 surpassed $2 billion, highlighting the blockchain’s growing influence, though it remains behind Ethereum’s $2.45 billion.
